Synopsis
Excerpt from The Mediterranean and Its Borderlands, Vol. 2 of 2
Corfu has a spacious harbor, enclosed on either hand by the old fortifications of the Venetians, to the eastward the bold heights of the Fortezza Vecchia, and to the northwest the Fortezza Nuova. They were maintained during the British control, but the changes in methods of warfare superseded these massive stone works, and after 1864 they fell into decay. Similarly also declined the ancient enclosing wall. As in most oriental harbors, the landing from ships is by small boats with the usual excitement.
